Expansion of "Customizing Bootstrap", extending using compiled CSS strategy.

Closed Administrator requested to merge github/fork/StevenBlack/GSEdits8 into master

Created by: StevenBlack

See my current branch live, in action here: http://bs3.sbc.io/getting-started/#customizing.

In summary:

  • replaced the brief .bs-callout-info segment -- which was a placeholder anyway -- with an expanded description of Bootstrap's CSS development process. This clarifies that the user has 2 hooks: either customize at the .LESS stage, or customize using the compiled CSS.
  • Expanded on the strategy of extending the compiled CSS.
  • Put the component customization example in an info-panel.
  • Renamed the "Removing potential bloat" section to "Controlling bloat" and placed that in its own danger-panel.

This is just a start but I reckon this is usable right now, way better than what we currently have.

Coming soon would be an equal treatment about customizing at the LESS stage, and perhaps a short table comparing and contrasting the two strategies.
